Thanks. X -configure solved it. |
| 38 |
As long as we're at the subject:Those options you're mentioning, would |
| 39 |
they go under the ""Keyboard0" device? |
| 40 |
I Added some options there: |
| 41 |
Section "InputDevice" |
| 42 |
Identifier "Keyboard0" |
| 43 |
Driver "kbd" |
| 44 |
# added - begin |
| 45 |
Option "xkb_layout" "en_US,il" |
| 46 |
Option "xkb_variant" ",winkeys" |
| 47 |
Option "xkb_options" "grp:rwin_toggle -option grp_led:scroll us,il" |
| 48 |
Option "xkb_options" "grp:lwin_toggle -option grp_led:scroll us,il" |
| 49 |
# added - end |
| 50 |
EndSection |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
, yet I don't see evidence of them getting read in Xorg.0.log. |
| 53 |
Rather, I see the following: |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
<Xorg.0.log> |
| 56 |
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard" |
| 57 |
(type: KEYBOARD) |
| 58 |
(**) Option "xkb_rules" "evdev" |
| 59 |
(**) Option "xkb_model" "pc104" |
| 60 |
(**) Option "xkb_layout" "en_US,ru" |
| 61 |
(**) Option "xkb_variant" ",winkeys" |
| 62 |
(**) Option "xkb_options" "grp:shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll" |
| 63 |
</Xorg.0.log> |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
Also, X complains "(WW) The directory "/usr/share/fonts/TTF/" does not |
| 66 |
exist.", I actually removed that reference from /etc/x11/xorg.conf. Yes |
| 67 |
it still insists on reading it. |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
Is there some cfg cache used by X, perhaps? |
